Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 lb Pizza dough Store-bought or homemade.
  • 1 cup Marinara sauce For the base flavor.
  • 2 cups Mozzarella cheese Shredded.
  • 1 small can Black olives For mummy's eyes.
  • 1 cup Pepperoni slices For added flavor.
  • 2 tbsp Olive oil For drizzling on top.
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning To enhance flavor.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface into a rectangular shape.
  3. Spread a generous layer of marinara sauce over the dough, leaving some space at the edges.
  4. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce.
  5. Cut additional dough into thin strips to create the 'wrapping' of the mummy and arrange them over the cheese.
  6. Place pepperoni slices between the dough strips.
  7. Brush the crust and dough strips lightly with olive oil.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until golden and bubbly.
  9. Once out of the oven, place black olives as the mummy's eyes.

Notes

For a thicker crust, allow the dough to rise slightly before rolling it out. Customize toppings according to preference. Consider individual mini mummy pizzas for each family member.
